Pleas-

I appreciate the time you spent with me discussing the proposed mentoring

program for secondary students in the Alamo Area Council of Governments

agencies.  As I understand it, many self selected students will work with

people like myself in technology business (cable. telecom, computers,

software, etc.) who will be their mentors.  Since we have talked about this

idea for years, I am really excited to see the San Antonio ISOC Chapter

undertake this effort.  As a Board member, I will do all that I can do to

support this work.  As I understand it, the primary supporters are ISOC-SA

and KLRN at the moment.

As an employee of a fair sized technology company, Time Warner Cable's Road

Runner High Speed Online business and within Time Warner Cable, I see many

opportunities within our organization for mutual benefit.  We sell high

technology and us use it.  We have a need for new employees.  We have a need

for skilled Internet and computer users. We have a long history of community

and educational involvement, and this program fits us from this perspective

as well.

Please keep me in the loop on this project.  I will do all that I can to

provide support and provide assistance to the project both as an ISOC-SA

member as well as I can within my position in Time Warner Cable.

Sincerely yours,

Philip W. Jackson
